    My son gave me this DJI osmo 2yrs ago, and I finally decided to use it for my trip. I spent the last few hours looking for a video to help me set up and download the correct app for my iPhone. I was so frustrated and ready to purchase a newer model until I came across your video at 1:06am and THANK YOUUUUUU. I feel so confident after watching your video and I got the correct app from the QRCode it helped me a lot. I am ready to take some amazing videos and I plan on saving this 5🌟. EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT tutorial. 🙏🙏🙏

    Quick suggestion: Since the grip is not as desirable as could be, I used a tennis racquet overgrip to give a a more firm grip. (About $2)

    Hi Evan - great step-by-step instruction video for setting up this gimble. I just pick one up--probably a bit late--to shoot YT and IG stories. I'm looking forward to using it because I'm convinced it's going to be a great stabilizer that's going to work for the diverse shots I take to teach driving. Stay well my friend, Cheers Rick

    Hi Evan, I just got the DJI Osmo Mobile 2 for Christmas. The instructions in the box were of no help to me but this video was awesome! I was ready to send the Osmo back thinking it was a dud; I'm so happy I came across your tutorial. Thanks for making it.

  • @stagerighthomestagingandre3711

    I just purchased the Osmo through Amazon and if it were not for your video we probably never would have been able to figure out how to set it up. So thanks! It'll take me a while to understand everything cuz I'm a techno-peasant but this is a great start.

  • @quasiguy
    @quasiguy Před 5 lety +4

    Hello Evan. Thanks for the good instructional video. Perhaps others have addressed this (I didn't read all of your comments to find out), but I'm guessing the reason you may be getting the vibration issues with the motor is because you only adjusted the tilt axis and not the roll axis...at least that's what happened on the video. The roll-axis is when you place the camera face down and make adjustments until it remains flat (and doesn't roll). My apologies if you've already been alerted to this fact. If possible, you may want to add a flag to your video (if possible) alerting future viewers to the missing step in balancing the gimbal. Thanks again for your efforts!

    • @pakeydev
      @pakeydev Před 5 lety

  • @rogerwill3558
    @rogerwill3558 Před 5 lety +4

    Great video. One small thing in the balancing tutorial, you circle the wrong knob to be loosened. The one you circled is for changing the orientation of the camera. But there is only one slider so it wasn't hard to figure out. Thanks

    WOW I've been going nuts trying to work out just how to get the active track icon to appear - all the video's tell you how to use it, but not this simple instruction. Learnt more easily from this video than the official one - thank you!

  • @glamouraz
    @glamouraz Před 5 lety +18

    Hello! I just wanted to point out that the adjustment knob you highlighted at 3:00 was the different one that you used at 3:15. The knob at 3:15 is the correct knob to use for balancing. I'm still unsure of what the one you highlighted does and I actually stumbled across this video while trying to find an explanation for it!

      @robertross1362 Před 5 lety +3

      I agree about the 'balancing' information. It just doesn't add and it seems worth correcting. I like your presentation and general technique but if you can't get the upfront 'balance' thing right away, it's frustrating.

  • @113EEBROEDBD
